Please TWI, do not exclude real life firearms

I respect the decision that KF3 will take place in the future but please, include at least some real life weapons.
We had 1911 and Stg44 in Killing Floor 2 so older weapons in modern setting were always part of Killing Floor.
I enjoy real life firearms and I don't want to see them go.
I agree, while future guns may have more customization options, I can't really feel them because they're not from real world. I suggested some ideas that I have prepared not long ago, regarding this issue. My idea was that Horzine uses device with cloaking tech, similar to stalker's to hide their equipment, they also have hidden time capsules - stashes that contain old era real world weapons, but I thought they will feel less appealing compared to new guns, so I made them special and glorified, to celebrate their return to third game. Like Golden m79 with engravings and incendiary grenades, etc. You can find these time capsules during random events that have a chance to occur when any wave starts, they can also give you side objectives and some other rewards.

I think that would be a clever way to bring back old real world guns, check out full page with this idea)

I think what TW will do is probably add actual real life weapon currently in future KF3 content updates, and make it look somewhat old from the weathering of time. TW can cleverly write it as a old school weapon in a sense of the KF3 timeline. Now TW did mentioned that weapon models are inspired by our current weapons of today and how it can look in a sort of distant future. In one of the trailers does support their claim, where in one scene there is a weapon that have a striking resemblance of the SCAR-H in terms of its iron sight and barrel. Nevertheless, I agree that there should be some real life weaponry in KF3.

I'd be happy to find some old beloved favorites for sure. But should we bring back IRL weapons, I'd argue that we should get some obscure options, possibly even prototypes. Or at least guns that are rarely seen in medias. I might be alone on that boat, but I'm really not hyped to get yet another AK for example... It's a staple of hundreds of shooters. I'm definitely craving some originality.
